Boston College has a number of EDI resources for employees, both within and outside of the Libraries.
Boston College Affinity Groups are volunteer, employee-managed groups that promote the interests of their respective constituencies. Affinity Groups bring together individuals with common interests to facilitate efforts that promote education and awareness while helping to advance and sustain a campus culture and climate that welcomes diversity and inclusiveness. All members of the BC community are welcomed!
Affinity Groups are places where underrepresented groups can come together for rest, reflection, sharing, healing, and organizing during work time. Affinity groups are organized by group members! They can be adapted to fit group members' needs.
These groups are specifically for those who identify as BIPOC, as LGBTQIA, or as having a disability. If you do not identify in one of these groups but are interested in learning, check the EDI Events calendar for education-centered opportunities or other events that are open to allies.
The EDI Staff & Leadership Training committee is pleased to share a calendar for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion related events.
Staff can access the calendar on the staff wiki (learn how to subscribe to the calendar)
